^ Engine bay looks great, but I feel like there should be a little more available play available in that upper-radiator connection? Doesn't the motor moving around stress those fittings to the rad?

Car looks great though!

PS- that water bottle is very "rat rod" haha, I like it. Though, in true rockabilly fashion it should be a can of PBR

I know that Robert has not been an angel to some people here, but I have known him for 21 years, he is one of the people that got me into rotaries...

He is a great friend to me...

For whatever reason that things got screwed up with other customers that will not change our friendship...
